Chapter 664 The Queen Wants to Escape
In this way, McDonald once again embarked on a diplomatic mission to the Tang Dynasty.

But the difference from the last time was that while the last time he was arrogant and demanding accusations, this time he was kneeling and begging for peace.

Tang military camp.

Li Zheng, who was in the big tent, received a report that the envoy of the Kingdom of John wanted to see him.

"Haha, gentlemen, I guess the John Kingdom is here to ask for peace? Hahaha."

Li Kan, Li Ke and others below were also laughing heartily.

"Bring people in."

A moment later, McDonald walked in cautiously.

As soon as McDonald looked up, he saw Li Zheng sitting in the upper seat, and his eyes immediately showed a look of fear.

"The envoy of the Kingdom of John pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."

McDonald did not expect that the gloomy-faced Emperor of the Tang Dynasty would come to the front line in person. The last time Li Zheng looked drunk, he left a deep impression on McDonald.

"Oh, it's you. You are an envoy from the Kingdom of John. What's your business?"

Li Zheng also recognized McDonald.

McDonald saw that Li Zheng had no intention of making things difficult for him, so he just pretended to be confused even though he knew the truth.

"You have come to my capital, King John, and you still ask me what's the matter. You are really insidious." McDonald complained madly in his heart, but a flattering smile appeared on his face.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, there were some misunderstandings between our two countries before. The Queen of my Kingdom of John has sent me here to seek peace. As long as the Tang Dynasty can withdraw its troops, I, Korea, can make compensation."

"Seek peace?"

"The Tang soldiers have come to your John Kingdom after a long journey, not to ask you to make peace with the Tang Dynasty. Go back and tell your queen clearly that you can either submit to the Tang Dynasty or I will lead the Tang soldiers to conquer your capital and then ask you to submit. There are only these two options for your John Kingdom."

McDonald wanted to say something, but Li Zheng waved his hand impatiently.

McDonald was immediately dragged away by two burly soldiers of the Bandit-Suppression Army.

On the other side, in the Platinum Palace, the news that Li Zheng refused to negotiate peace was soon placed on Victoria's desk.

Her young Queen and her ministers all looked sad and looked at each other in silence.

Of course Victoria would not accept surrender. She had just become the Queen of John and had not had time to realize her ambitions. How could she be willing to become someone else's vassal?

"Your Majesty, the only option now is to retreat. The navy still has a fleet, and we can retreat to France and Spain to take shelter temporarily." Charles said from below.

As soon as Charles finished speaking, Victoria's eyes lit up.

Although she was unwilling, Victoria agreed to Charles' proposal immediately as she would be captured by the Tang State if she stayed.

The king and his ministers of John's country all moved like dogs that had lost their homes.

In this way, Victoria led the civil and military officials of John's country to pack up their belongings and plan to flee to France and Spain.

In order to stabilize the Tang Dynasty first, Davis once again sent McDonald to the Tang Dynasty military camp. Obviously, McDonald was abandoned by the king and his ministers.

When McDonald went to the Tang Dynasty military camp, Victoria had already boarded the warship to France and Spain.

Because they were in such a hurry, although the king and his ministers of John Kingdom tried their best to pack up and take away, there were too many gold, silver and treasures piled up in the treasury of John Kingdom, and the army of the hall was ready to move outside the city, so they only took away less than 10%.

In fact, in the minds of the king and his ministers, John still had the idea of ​​relying on France and Spain to regain his homeland and drive the Tang Kingdom back to the East. However, McDonald, who was heading to the Tang military camp, was in a dilemma at the moment. He keenly discovered that Davis and Her Majesty the Queen wanted to escape.

But Davis still sent her to the Tang Dynasty military camp, under the pretext of discussing John's surrender, but Davis's words actually meant to ask McDonald to delay time as much as possible.

No matter how stupid McDonald was, he understood that he was just a chess piece used to stabilize the Tang Dynasty. The last time the Tang Dynasty did not kill him, he returned safely to King John's capital. That was just because the Tang Dynasty was disdainful.

But this time it is different. If the king and his ministers of John Kingdom really planned to escape, and they finally found out that they were fooled, the Tang Dynasty would definitely not let them go.

The reason why McDonald was conflicted was that John Country was his homeland after all. Moreover, if John Country had a chance to make a comeback, he, as a traitor, would definitely not have a good end.

Just like that, McDonald, with a heavy heart, walked into the Tang Dynasty military camp. McDonald looked at the neat appearance and high morale of the Tang Dynasty soldiers in the camp, as well as the hot air balloons used for reconnaissance floating in the sky. McDonald made a secret decision in his heart.

"Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty." McDonald knelt down on the ground trembling with fear.

"It's you again. How about it? What decision have you made, John?"

Li Zheng's lazy voice sounded.

When McDonald heard the question, he knelt on the ground with a look of struggle on his face.

Li Kan, who was in the big tent, did not see the struggle on McDonald's face. When he saw that McDonald ignored Li Zheng's questions, he immediately became furious.

"You are so rude in front of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Do you really think that the Tang Dynasty dare not kill you?"

The devil, McDonald, who was lying on the ground, was so frightened when he heard this that he even started shaking. Then the last bit of struggle in his heart disappeared.

"Your Majesty, I have something important to report."

Hearing McDonald's words, Emperor Li Zheng and his ministers were also surprised. McDonald called himself a foreign minister. Could it be that he wanted to defect to the Tang Dynasty?

Thinking of this, Li Zheng asked, "What's the matter?"

After letting go of the struggle in his heart, McDonald no longer hesitated and immediately told John the whole news that the king and his ministers were planning to escape.

"So, your Queen sent you to delay time?"

Hearing Li Zheng's unfriendly tone, McDonald immediately explained.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor of the Great Tang, I fought for John Country and risked my life, but Davis sent me here to die. I am so disappointed with John Country that I would not have told Your Majesty about their escape."

Hearing McDonald's explanation, Li Zheng smiled.

In fact, she didn't care too much about the escape of the king and his ministers of John. Anyway, her goal was the whole world, and the king and his ministers of John would be his prisoners sooner or later. It was just a matter of time.

But he thought this McDonald was interesting.

"Then do you know where they plan to flee to?"

McDonald knew that this was his chance to redeem himself and he had thought about this issue before.

"I think that the Kingdom of John is about to be conquered by His Majesty the Emperor, and the only country that can provide them with shelter is the neighboring Kingdom of France and Spain."

France! Li Zheng knew this country calmly. Among the foreign races that had harmed the Chinese nation in the past life, France was one of them.

Li Zheng, who knew what was going on, was quite satisfied with McDonald's performance.
